5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Guide
Incredible resource.Awesome photos to match descriptions. Our 10 year old grandson buried his nose into this guide and had to be reminded he had other Birthday Gifts to open.
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing book
Illustrated reference guides aren't usually this great looking--if they are, they often cost a lot more. High detail images of every bat species with info for each, with general bat information/ecology/biology interspered throughout the book. Great for both kids and adults (the writing isn't simple, but if you were like me as a child you slogged through reference-style books all the same just because you craved animal info), or just as a coffee table book to impress guests.
5.0 out of 5 stars It's great!!
I loved how informative it was, I've been really into bats and when I went to barns and nobles they only had one bat book that was 10 pages for kids, so I'm really happy with this!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Bat Encyclopedia
I bought this book for my 15-yr. old autistic son who LOVES bats. His birthday was coming up, and I really wanted him to have a bat book of his own. This book has exceeded my expectations! It is very detailed with wonderful pictures and everything you could possible want to know about bats. My son loves this book! He carries it around with him all of the time, and enjoys informing us about all of the things he's learned about bats. We've been out & about and have seen bats flying around, and he'll tell us what kind of bat it is, and exclaim, "I read about them in my bat book!" If you're looking for a comprehensive book about bats, look no further!
5.0 out of 5 stars Everything and more!
This book is much better than I expected! It's exactly what I was looking for
5.0 out of 5 stars One word, spectacular. It’s a must have!!
If you’re a bat lover than you will absolutely love this book. It shows species of bats that we know nothing about and is very Informative. There’s vivid, close up pics of the bats as well and I’d purchase again for myself since this was a gift for my gf. She’s a bat lover as well and you can get lost in reading about these magnificent creatures. I recommend to anyone. Kids, adults alike. Educational to all willing to learn more about the incredible life on this planet. We’ve yet to discover all species of bats I’m sure! I highly recommend for everyone.
4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and comprehensive
This book is absolutely gorgeous! The photos are all very high quality and clear and the pages and binding are thick and sturdy.My only point of critique is that most of the photos are just shots of the head, which is fine for a book like this but it’s not the best guide for species identification. More for general information. Overall though I am so pleased and excited for this book!
5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous photographs
I bought this for my daughter for her 12th birthday. She had asked to go to Bracken’s cave for her birthday, but with restrictions still in place we might not be able to go this year. She has loved bats since first grade. While this isn’t as good as what she asked for she is thrilled with this book. She excited to learn more about bats for when we finally do go to Bracken’s cave. I looked through the book with her. It’s a beautiful book. The pictures are stunning.
Can't be used as a field guide but illustration is quite good...
Information present is little less than expected...
This is a great book
This is really a well made book, with a lot of bat species and beautiful pictures.
The illustrations are amazing
Excelent book 📚
良く言えば、一般向け
すべて写真で揃えたのはすごいが、頭部のアップだけで全身写真が少なく、識別ポイント、図説等の解説がないので、専門外だと特徴がややわかりにくい。マイナスポイントは、希少種でも無いのに、全長や体重といった基本情報が『不明』と表記のものが多く、種ごとの生息地(国)以外の情報も乏しい。内容が稚拙なわけではないが、全体的に情報にムラがあり、種同定や種間比較など調べものとして使うには、あまり期待しない方が良い。写真は鮮明で美しく点数も多いので、初学の写真集的な楽しみ本かな...。悪い本では無いが、学術レベルに耐えうるコウモリ本のバイブルとなるには、もう少し情報と使いやすさの工夫が必要と感じた。
Good
needed to be more in-depth but still palatable
